Hot Sardines: Matrix



Analisis + Gertrude Stein Chosen Poems

The way I perceive Getrude's work is that she observed events, sporadic moments, short moments that gave a unusual relevance to the small details, or even insignificant details to most people. Yet to me it seems that she view specific things in a certain colors or objects that metaphorically speaking gave additional meaning to a particular scene.

Her poems are in far very cryptic, and most definitely incomprehensible when not given careful thought to the words that they contain. I particularly enjoy the narrative that exists in her work, which sometimes isn't as linear as I would expect, thus why some poems might be harder to decipher than others.

Exploration options that I am thinking is, how the words occupy the space in relation with what they are saying. Dimensional Typography its what is called I think.

-Nothing Elegant
-A Method of a Cloak
-A Box
- A Long Press
- A Frightful Rehuse
-Water Raining
-A Little of a tumbler
-A table
-Suppose an Eyes
-This is this Dress, Aider

Narrative - Project one: Research

"Motion graphics and visual effects driven by graphics and narrative" is the main phrase in the MakeProductions.co website. Their work is heavily consisted by  motion graphics, photography and mesmerizing animated graphic sequences. Joe Fellows the co-founder has introduced a new method of narrative in the graphic design industry, said method being the Parallax Effect. The Parallax effect is displacement or difference in the apparent position of an object viewed along two different lines of sight. It its basic level it means that it tricks the eye into thinking that a still photo is being animated.
This effect has given birth to several commercial pieces such as the campaign for H&M which features the Brazilian supermodel Giselle Bunchen as well as the popular WWF parallax sequence which showcases compelling and breathtaking photography manipulated with the parallax in order to create compelling and thought provoking mementos.


The futures applications of this process is creatively limitless. Specially since it opens new avenues to those who have limited resources to shoot a refined visual or cinematographic production. The appeal of this method is also open to the what it contains visually and who is the audience, and certainly provides a wide range of versatility.
